If I had confetti...
…I would throw it on all of you. Happy New Year!
I’m flying tomorrow, so that’s about all the celebration I’m in for this evening. Grace and Peace to all of you, wherever you are, Strangerfriends.

Happy New Year to all of you who give so much of yourselves. I am so greatful.
to paraphrase William Cowper:
I do the work because...
*chuckle*
I am slowly watching Tumblr slip into a drunken pile of awesome. I had sangria earlier, but damn, you guys are doing it up right.
Packing
That’s what I’m doing for New Year’s dammit.
I'll be around this evening
My mom and I are doing a little tapas and sangria party to ring in the new year. Well, knowing my mom and her friends, they won’t make it till new year, so I’ll be back on the compy before midnight I’m sure.

NYE
For New Year’s, it’s a Spanish tapas party at my house. Sort of. I wanted to do full on Spanish, but my mom and her neighbor are trying to clear out their leftovers, so in addition to my amazing garlic shrimp, we’re having lima beans, bowtie pasta salad and some other random goodies. heh… Oh well, it’s going to fun anyway you slice it.
I think I may attempt Guardo...
Do-gooding
Just saw some Facebook photos of a friend trekking across an island. There are thousands of us in the do-gooding organization I work for, and I have friends stretched from Africa to the nether-reaches of the South Pacific. Geez, I can’t wait to get going. Just a month and a half away.
*ding dong*
Yes? What is it Mr. FedEx man? I just woke up and I’m in my pajam… Oh, you have my computer? Thanks.
Eeeeeeeeeekkkk….
So excited right now.
Night night
Goodnight to the cool folks who make this place what it is.
Down with the haters.
Grace and Peace.

Bomb exploded.
Fun gone.
Tired of reading reblogs.
Perhaps time for bed?
Yep. tumblr implodes yet again.
Maybe I should post a picture of myself in knee high socks just to see what happens.
I would too but I’ve got really hairy legs.
*snorts into her cider* Oh dear Lord…
Leave it to you two to bring the fun back.

I saw this New Year’s Eve party announcement for Nashville, and I about busted a gut. I love it. I wish I was in Nashville, because I would so be there.

Ugh...
I’ve noticed a disturbing trend in popular culture. A lot shows on television, from actual shows to reality TV, feature all these women being bitchy and hateful to each other. Even books for pre-teen girls (like Gossip Girl) promote the “evil queen bee” mentality.

I feel oddly disconnected from Tumblr, and I’ve only been gone from fulltime Tumbl-watching for a day or two. I wonder what it’s going to look like when I go to Thailand in a month and a half. I’m going to be gone for, oh, a month, and while I will have Internet access, I don’t have much time to sit around and look at it. I do hope that I’ll be able to post...
What scares me most
I am currently single, and very happy in that state, unlike I have ever been. I mean, no crushes, no infatuations, no interest, no nothing. And I am perfectly fine with that.
What worries me now, however, is that someone is going to show interest in me, and I’m going to blow them off because I don’t want to mess up the good thing I have.

You want that sock monkey hat? Hmm?? Do ya?

i seriously love this album. from start to end. have heard it i dont even know how many times, but it never fails to pick me up. i especially love listening to it when driving for some reason. and it makes me wanna dance. it’s just fun times all around.
When I hear A-Punk, it makes me want to go watch Grosse Point Blank. Such a good soundtrack.
Late night snack
In lieu of the chocolate turtle cookies (may they rest in peace,) I am having dried figs and goat cheese, apricot amaretto cookies that run a distant second to the other ones, and a glass of cider.

Every career test I have ever taken tells me that I should be an engineer, or a scientist. I have the mind for it. Those career tests are right, but they also ask leading questions. I think…
Love this.
Srsly...
Who ARE these people who start following me? Come on, do you reblog me? Have you ever? I don’t mind looking around at other blogs and such, but it makes me curious as to why someone would follow me.

I’m having a late nite snack - butter brickle biscotti and blueberry koolaid (don’t ask)
Heh. I try.
Ugh. No talkie about the sweeties. I went to get a dark chocolate turtle cookie out of the cabinet, and I think...

The South
I know that I am back in the South when I start writing in Southern-ese. My speech is always the first to go, but then I start taking shortcuts on my writing, slurring my words together. Run on sentences and stuff. (HA! That was unintentional.)
In two days, i will get on a plane, and fly back to the West Coast, and give it a week or two, the accent will be gone again. But I’m kinda wanting...
